Well, I got some Behemoth for Christmas and have decided to get around to listening to it.

I know religious groups in Poland have tried to get them in trouble on more than one occasion under their blasphemy law, they probably didn't help themselves when they tore the bible up on stage. Would be fun to see them live.

Is it just me, or is this song about the evolution of mankind as opposed to special creation and its eventual transition into code loaded onto computers.

I probably spend to much time here ... and on youtube

When my mom and dad were young, they would have "themed" dates. An Italian movie, Italian food. French movie, French food. As the years went by, my sweet father always loved to watch movies that were associated with some sort of theme.

As a kid growing up in a secular household, this movie was part of our spring break tradition. In later years, The Last Temptation of Christ would also become part of the tradition. But the Jesus Christ Superstar of my youth was always my favorite.

It is a product of its era - the moment in which the hippies gave way to disco - but I watched it again this evening, and on many levels, it is amazingly fresh.

It presents a very interesting interpretation of the scriptures, one which is certainly not in current fashion. But it contains a significant body of quotes taken from the English translation of the NT. And I like the music.

If you've never seen it before, push through and give it a chance. If you haven't seen it in years or decades, you might find yourself enjoying it.

Too many metal bands are using orchestras now XD. But to be fair, Dimmu is meant to have a symphonic twist, it just seems weird having a really demonic band with songs about satanism backed by a really well-dressed orchestra like you've just turned up to see the opera...aside from obviously all of the mud.

However, I'm listening to a bit of Chimaira, not listened to them for ages. Used to listen to them a lot as a teen...I remember it was what I was listening to when I read the satanic bible.

Although I have misplace my copy of it, this is from my favourite album of theirs.

.

Also, was a big listener of Breed 77 at the time, guess I'm having a bit of a nostalgic music session. XD.
